Did you know polls can be a great way of engaging with the employees at work? It can be used for serious introspective understanding of the choices and also for a lot of fun. Enterprise collaboration platforms like uKnowva give you an open platform to create polls and participate in them. You could keep the identity of the participants as anonymous or open as per will.

Here are 5 fun polls to create for your employees at work;

1) Attire rules in officeYou may or may not make the changes as per the recommendations, but asking your employees what they would like to wear at work can be a fun quiz to have. Understand what people feel most comfortable in wearing maybe just for fun. And you never know the answer may be so insightful that you get convinced to make some changes in the system too.

2) The canteen foodExcept a few organizations, most employees are always cribbing about the office canteen food. Give them a chance to speak their heart out with a fun poll about how would they rate the canteen or what additions would they like to the menu.

3) Picnic timeRather than deciding yourself where the employees should go out for picnic, give them a change to tell you which place would they prefer. They will appreciate that you consider their recommendations and also might come up with some interesting ideas that you might have missed out.

4) Psychological quizTry to understand public opinion of different matters of interest and new items. Example if the government has recently imposed some law, ask the employees what they think of it. You might get some super funny replies to this one. Also it helps to keep the conversation going and keeping people up to date with current affairs.

5) Funny rewardsKeep a monthly reward with funny nominations aimed just to have fun. Example you could have an award for the person who lost maximum weight this month or a reward for those who take maximum leaves calling them a travel bug or a reward for someone who deserves to wear lenses because they are always looking into their screens all day. Let all employees participate by voting for the nominations.
